Scottish Rock Garden Club 69Th Seed Distribution 2015-16 SCOTTISH ROCK GARDEN CLUB 69th SEED DISTRIBUTION 2015-2016 Send requests for seed to: Send seed donations to: Mr Neil McNulty Drs Ian and Carole Bainbridge 6 Main Road Luckie Harg’s Crookedholm Anwoth Road Kilmarnock Gatehouse of Fleet KA3 6JT Castle Douglas Scotland DG7 2EF Scotland Contact us at [email protected] Please read page 2 and the notes in the Yearbook Scottish Rock Garden Club 69th Seed Distribution 2015-16 Applications The procedure for seed requests is as usual: use the forms in the centre of the booklet, and send these to Neil McNulty, or go online at the SRGC website (see centrefold page ii) to make your requests. The website password is on centrefold page (i). Even if you request seed on the paper forms by post, you can pay for seed by credit card online in Sterling, but not by debit card. All seed requests must be received by January 15th. Donors may choose 25 packets, non-donors 16 packets. Please follow the instructions carefully, and write legibly to ensure we pick the items you want. The charge for the main request for all members is now £5, €7, or $10 US, to cover packing, postage and administration of the exchange. Distribution Distribution of seed starts in January, first for donors’ main requests, then for non-donors’, and finally for surplus seed applications. Main requests will be sent out in January, but surplus requests will be processed only after all main orders have been fulfilled. Main and surplus requests will therefore arrive some time apart. US members must send all their necessary paperwork with the request form (see centrefold page i) unless this was sent with your seed donation. Phytosanitary restrictions outwith European Union US members should not choose any items marked with a black star ✸. We cannot send live material to members outwith the EU. All bulbs, bulblets, corms and rice are marked ♠ in the list. Australian, New Zealand and US members must write a separate list of items requested which must include both numbers and names. About the list The Plant List and the RHS Find a Plant website are our primary sources of information for verifying plant names, and redirecting arrows are used to help those who still use an old name. Species not in the Plant List or RHS website are checked with the IPNI website, and then a Google search. Some genera are ‘sunk’ in this list. For Douglasia, look at Androsace; for Cortusa, go to Primula, for Symphyandra, look at Campanula. On the contrary, Dodecatheon and Meconopsis are unchanged. We cannot guarantee accuracy in naming, we rely on the donors naming of seed for the Exchange. Remember that named varieties rarely come true, so any named variety should really be considered as ‘ex’ that variety. After the genus name the sequence is sp., named varieties, then species; and after the species name subspecies, varieties and forms. Some unknown species are offered as sp., and an entry spp. means that there is a mixture of species of that genus. The Seed List will remain on the SRGC website, so you will be able to check packet numbers in the future. Botanical families have been added to the genera with a three-letter code, either the first three letters of the family name, or the code given in the Notes on p36. Genera in the wild section also have their families identified. Ian and Carole Bainbridge * www.theplantlist.org * www.rhs.org.uk/plants/search-Form * www.ipni.org 2 GARDEN SEED ABIES (pin) 51 n.

  • Evolutionary Consequences of Dioecy in Angiosperms: the Effects of Breeding System on Speciation and Extinction Rates
    EVOLUTIONARY CONSEQUENCES OF DIOECY IN ANGIOSPERMS: THE EFFECTS OF BREEDING SYSTEM ON SPECIATION AND EXTINCTION RATES by JANA C.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada http://www.library.ubc.ca/spcoll/thesauth.html ABSTRACT Dioecy, the breeding system with male and female function on separate individuals, may affect the ability of a lineage to avoid extinction or speciate. Dioecy is a rare breeding system among the angiosperms (approximately 6% of all flowering plants) while hermaphroditism (having male and female function present within each flower) is predominant. Dioecious angiosperms may be rare because the transitions to dioecy have been recent or because dioecious angiosperms experience decreased diversification rates (speciation minus extinction) compared to plants with other breeding systems.

Chromosomal studies have revealed that 2n = 34 in Astilboides, Darmera, Mukdenia, and Bergenia and that these genera have very similar karyotypes. Few taxa of Saxifrageae have x = 17, and chromosomal data therefore suggest that these four genera form a natural group. The generic affinities suggested by chromosomal data are not in agreement with the traditional interpretation of relationships in Saxifrageae. Astilboides has been placed in subtribe Astilbinae, while Bergenia, Darmera, and Mukdenia were considered members of Saxifraginae. The data presented here, in conjunction with data from earlier chromosomal studies, indicate that traditional subtribal boundaries do not accurately reflect relationships in tribe Saxifrageae.

    Molecular and Morphological Investigation of Astilbe by Brian W. Trader Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Horticulture APPROVED: Holly L. Scoggins, Chair _ Joyce G. Latimer Duncan M. Porter Stephen E. Scheckler Richard E. Veilleux June 19, 2006 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Phylogenetics, SNPs, Saxifragaceae, and matK Molecular and Morphological Investigation of Astilbe Brian Wayne Trader Abstract Astilbe (Saxifragaceae) is a genus of herbaceous perennials widely cultivated for their ornamental value. The genus is considered taxonomically complex because of its geographic distribution, variation within species, and the lack of adequate morphological characters to delineate taxa. To date, an inclusive investigation of the genus has not been conducted. This study was undertaken to (a) develop a well-resolved phylogeny of the genus Astilbe using an expanded morphological data set and sequences from the plastid gene matK, (b) use single nucleotide polymorphisms to determine the lineages of cultivated varieties, and (c) successfully culture Astilbe in vitro and evaluate potential somaclonal variation of resulting Astilbe microshoots. Phylogenetic trees generated from a morphological character matrix of 28 character states divided Astilbe into three distinct clades. Relationships were well resolved among the taxa, though only a few branches had greater than 50% bootstrap support. There is evidence from the phylogeny that some described species may actually represent variation within populations of species. From our analysis I propose an Astilbe genus with 13 to 15 species and offer a key for distinguishing species and varieties. There was little matK sequence variation among taxa of Astilbe.

Transcriptome-derived single-sequence repeat markers were developed for the Korean endangered species Astilboides tabularis (Saxifragaceae) to assess its genetic diver- sity. A total of 96 candidate microsatellite loci were isolated based on transcriptome data using Illumina pair end sequencing. Of these, 26 were polymorphic, with one to five alleles per locus in 60 individuals from three pop- ulations of A. tabularis. The observed and expected heterozygosity per locus ranged from 0.000 to 0.950 and from 0.000 to 0.741, respectively. These polymorphic transcriptome-derived simple sequence repeat markers would be invaluable for future studies of population genetics and for ecological conservation of the endangered species A. tabularis.
